BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

1. Field of Invention

The present invention relates to a tool for hairstyles design, and moreparticularly to a nozzle unit for a hair dryer.

2. Description of Related Arts

In the present days, people usually use towel to dry wet hair afterwashing their hair and then leave their hair to dry naturally in theair. Some people may speed up the drying process of their wet hairthrough the use of hair dryer to blow-dry their wet or damp hair.Accordingly, hair dryer has been developed as a very important tool forhairstyles design in our daily lives. Because a temperature of blowingair from the hair dryer is adjustable, the use of hair dryer can bebroadened to meet different needs. However, a conventional hair dryerusually includes a hair dryer body and a nozzle connected to the hairdryer body. The nozzle usually has a flattened and elongated opening ora circular opening serving as the air outlet for the hair dryer, whichis not only unsatisfactory in providing a speedy blow-drying process butalso inconvenience for use. In addition, this kind of nozzle can onlyprovide one single function.

SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

The invention is advantageous in that it provides a nozzle for hairdryer which is adapted for use with a hair dryer so as to provide quickdrying and curl hair style result at the same time.

Additional advantages and features of the invention will become apparentfrom the description which follows, and may be realized by means of theinstrumentalities and combinations particular point out in the appendedclaims.

According to the present invention, the foregoing and other objects andadvantages are attained by a nozzle for hair dryer adapted forconnecting to a hair dryer, comprising a nozzle body having a first endportion and an engagement structure provided on the first end portionwhich is arranged for connecting to an air outlet of the hair dryer,which is characterized in that: the nozzle body has a second endportion, the nozzle for hair dryer comprises a rotational body providedon the second end portion, wherein the rotational body has anair-flowing channel longitudinally extended along an axis of therotational body; and a rotational surface having a plurality of airoutlets provided thereon which are penetrating through-hole on therotational surface communicating to the air-flowing channel.

Wherein the rotational body is a truncated cone-shaped structure; theplurality of air outlets on the rotational surface are evenly andspacedly provided along the axis of the rotational body, and are evenlyand spacedly provided in a circumferential manner.

Wherein each of the air outlet is a circular opening; and the truncatedcone-shaped structure of the rotational body has defined a second endportion at a top portion of the truncated cone-shaped structure, and hasa plurality of air outlets at the second end portion which are elongatedopenings evenly and spacedly provided in a circumferentially manner onthe rotational body.

Compared to the conventional arts, the present invention is advantageousin that:

The nozzle according to the preferred embodiment of the presentinvention has one end connected to the rotational body, wherein therotational body has an air-flowing channel longitudinally extended alongthe axis of the rotational body, and a rotational wall defining arotational surface having a plurality of air outlets provided on thesurface which are penetrating though-hole penetrating through the wall.In particular, the rotational body is a truncated cone-shaped structure,the air outlets are evenly and spacedly provided along the axis of therotational body, and are evenly and spacedly provided in acircumferential manner. Accordingly, people can install the nozzle ofthe present invention to an air outlet of a hair dryer, placing hair tothe nozzle of the present invention such that drying and curling effectcan be achieved in one step. The nozzle of the present invention is easyto use. The step of use includes: positioning hair onto the nozzle, andremoving the nozzle and the hair dryer after drying, thereby drying andcurling effect are achieved while drying without additional step.

Still further objects and advantages will become apparent from aconsideration of the ensuing description and drawings.

These and other objectives, features, and advantages of the presentinvention will become apparent from the following detailed description,the accompanying drawings, and the appended claims.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is an illustration of a nozzle for hair dryer according to apreferred embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 2 is an illustration of a nozzle for hair dryer which is connectedto a hair dryer according to the above preferred embodiment of thepresent invention.

FIG. 3 is an illustration of a nozzle for hair dryer and a hair dryeraccording to the above preferred embodiment of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The nozzle for hair dryer according to the preferred embodiment of thepresent invention is further described in the following.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3 of the drawings, a nozzle for hair dryeraccording to the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprisesa nozzle body 1 defining two end portions, namely a first end portionand a second end portion, an engagement structure 11 provided on thefirst end portion of the nozzle body which is arranged for connecting toan air outlet of the hair dryer such that the nozzle body 1 is securelyand fittingly connected to the hair dryer, and a rotational body 2provided on the second end portion of the nozzle body 1 in such a mannerthat the rotational body 2 is securely supported through the engagementstructure 11 of the nozzle body 1 and the rotational body 2 is capableof guiding and controlling an air flow from the hair dryer. Therotational body 2 has an air-flowing channel longitudinally extendedalong an axis of the rotational body 2 such that air which is firstflowing from the air outlet of the hair dryer is guided to flow to theair-flowing channel of the rotational body 2 while the rotational body 2is securely supported through the nozzle body 1. The rotational body 2has a rotational surface having a plurality of air outlets 21 throughwhich the air-flowing channel of the rotational body 2 is communicatedto, thereby air flowing from the air-flowing channel of the rotationalbody 2 is guided to penetrate through the air outlets 21. The rotationalbody 2 has a truncated cone-shaped structure in which the rotationalsurface is provided thereon and the plurality of air outlets 21 isco-axially and evenly provided along the axis of the rotational body 2in such a manner that the air outlets 21 are systemically and evenlyaligned on the rotational surface and are circumferential provided onthe rotational body 2. The air outlet 21 is a circular opening throughwhich air from the air-flowing channel is capable of being guided toflow at a direction which is perpendicular to the circular opening ofthe air outlet 21. The rotational body 2 further defines an end portionhaving a plurality of air outlets 22 at the end portion, wherein the airoutlets 22 at the end portion are elongated openings evenly and spacedlyprovided at the end portion and are circumferential provided along thelongitudinal axis on the rotational body 2. Wherein the engagementarrangement 11 of the nozzle body 1 is a ring-shaped engaging groove inwhich a plurality of indented holes are defined so as to facilitate theattachment of the nozzle body 1 to the hair dryer.

One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment of thepresent invention as shown in the drawings and described above isexemplary only and not intended to be limiting.

It will thus be seen that the objects of the present invention have beenfully and effectively accomplished. It embodiments have been shown anddescribed for the purposes of illustrating the functional and structuralprinciples of the present invention and is subject to change withoutdeparture from such principles.
